Skin Type?

Skin Type?

What type of skin do I have?

If you know your skin type then you can make the right choices on how to care for it!

Your skin has been determined for you by your parents.  It’s in your DNA!  So knowing your skin type will help determine the way in which you should care for it.

Different skin types are genetically determined but choosing the best skin care for your face and body is most important to care for your skin's health, slow down the ageing process and look after skin and body!

What type of skin do I have?

There are four basic skin types: normal, oily, dry and sensitive.  Blotting a clean tissue on your face in the morning is an easy way to find out your skin type. 

normal skin type has good circulation and there will not be any trace of sebum (or oil) on the tissue.  Normal skin is soft, smooth and has an even skin tone.

An oily skin type: the tissue will have oily blotches on the tissue, particularly from the cheeks, nose and forehead.  This type of skin is characterized by overactive sebaceous glands, producing more oil than you need.  Oily skin can be caused by a number of influences including hereditary factors, diet, hormone levels, pregnancy, unsuitable cosmetics and stress, leading to acne irruptions and enlarged pores.  It is important to thoroughly clean your skin on a regular basis with soap-free cleansers.

dry skin type has a low level of sebum and does not hold oil easily.  Dry skin is often flaky and feels tight after being wiped.  Gentle cleansing and a rich protective moisturizer for dry skin is essential to control that stretched, uncomfortable feeling.  It may be necessary to select various dry skin moisturizers for the changing conditions of the year.

A sensitive skin type means different things to different people.  It can be caused by skin conditions such as psoriasis, rosacea, eczema or allergies.  Sensitive skin can become exacerbated and irritated easily.  It is important to choose the right natural skin care regimes for sensitive skin.  Many cleansers and moisturizers may contain ingredients that can cause adverse reactions. 

And then there is a combination skin type oil, which is produced around the nose and forehead but not on the cheeks, mouth or eye areas.  The best natural skin care will involve a varied treatment in each region.
